    No that’s the point it would not be in defiance of the government because the government don’t have the authority to tell private companies or individuals what bits of water should be called. All president has the authority to do is dictate what federal agencies call it.

    The whole reason that everyone thinks this is a massive waste of time is precisely because he doesn’t actually have the authority to force anybody to do anything. 20 years from now I highly doubt anyone is still going to be calling it the Gulf Of America, it’s just a PR stunt to keep his supporters happy.


  • I think my largest gripe with it is it can’t actually do anything. It can just tell you about stuff.

    I can ask it how to change the desktop background on my computer and it will 100% be able to tell me, but if you then prompt it to change the background itself it won’t be able to. It has zero ability to interact with the computer, this is even the case with AI run locally.

    It can’t move the mouse around it can’t send keyboard commands.


  • Could you tell me what you use it for because I legitimately don’t understand what I’m supposed to find helpful about the thing.

    We all got sent an email at work a couple of weeks back telling everyone that they want ideas for a meeting next month about how we can incorporate AI into the business. I’m heading IT, so I’m supposed to be able to come up with some kind of answer and yet I have nothing. Even putting aside the fact that it probably doesn’t work as advertised, I still can’t really think of a use for it.

    The main problem is it won’t be able to operate our ancient and convoluted ticketing system, so it can’t actually help.

    Everyone I’ve ever spoken to has said that they use it for DMing or story prompts. All very nice but not really useful.



  • I can’t stand the corporate double think.

    Despite the mountains of evidence that AI is not capable of something even basic as reading an article and telling you what is about it’s still apparently going to replace humans. How do they come to that conclusion?

    The world won’t be destroyed by AI, It will be destroyed by idiot venture capitalist types who reckon that AI is the next big thing. Fire everyone, replace it all with AI; then nothing will work and nobody will be able to buy anything because nobody has a job.

    Que global economic collapse.






  • Well it’s a computer program so of course it can clone itself (this isn’t a surprise). Computer viruses have been doing that for decades.

    But for an AI to be able to clone itself in a way that it would be useful not only does it need to be connected to the internet but it would have to be some hardware capable of running the AI waiting for it. I can’t really see how that could happen accidentally.
